If you click <Edit> on more than one row, the <Update> and <Cancel> buttons are only displayed on the
first row, and you can make changes to all the editable rows and then update the changes by clicking the
one <Update> button. Also, if you want to make the same change to multiple rows (e.g. to change five
tasks from “Not Started” status to “In Progress”), you can click on the “fill” icon to the right of the editable
item, which will propagate the new value to all editable items in the same column.
If you want to edit lots of items, first select their checkboxes and then click the [Edit] button on the same
row as the Filters and it will switch all the selected items into edit mode.
When you have made your updates, you can either click <Update> to commit the changes, or <Cancel>
to revert back to the original information. Alternatively, pressing the <ENTER> key will commit the
changes and pressing the <ESCAPE> key will cancel the changes.
